Blue Jays catcher J.P. Arencibia quickly put his troubled major league season behind him by proposing to girlfriend Kimberly Perry in a dream-come-true setting for the pair.

Barely a day after the Jays’ disappointing season ended, Arencibia appeared on the doorstep of a Tennessee farm with a ring in hand for Perry, the lead singer in the award winning country group, The Band Perry.

Arencibia had previously arranged the moment with the help of Perry’s family, which had moved over a decade ago to the picturesque 15-acre farm near Greenville, Tenn.

Perry was a teenager at the time of the move, and she grew up with a dream of a fairy-tale like moment where she would be proposed to under an oak tree on the property.

Arencibia made that happen, according to the Tennessean. He surprised Perry with a knock on the door. When the singer realized what was happening, she went up to her room to find her favourite dress had been placed on her bed for her, along with a family letter and a bracelet given to her grandmother by her grandfather.

“I got to read the letter and get dressed and put on my grandfather’s bracelet,” Perry, 30, told the Tennessean. “I came back out to the front porch and he was standing there and he got down on one knee . . . it was perfect.”

Perry’s brothers Neil and Rich are in the band and their 2010 hit “If I Die Young” reached No. 1 on Billboard’s country charts. The singles “All Your Life” and “Better Dig Two” also made the charts.
